My septims are on that being the often discussed Bethnic Lurker in these threads. Design fits with the name, in my opinion.
I thought benthic lurkers were meant to be underwater?

I stands in a puddle and looks like a fishman.
I think it's possible that it is indeed the lurker. One way or another, it is probably a lesser Daedra of HM.

Well, if you look closely at it, it has a number of fish-like features. I think people just jumped to conclusions that we were going to get underwater combat.

Wait,what? :ohmy:
30 locations..

Hopefully it means there are more than 30 - you get the vanilla "Explorer" achievement for discovering 100 locations, but there are around 350 marked locations and 200 unmarked locations in the base game.

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but the thing I am most excited about in the trailer is the other dragonborn's armor. I expect to be wearing that on my main light-armor wearing character. It looks really great!

Yeah, but I don't think they were ever linked to the player. (or if you can even tell?)
I'm going to have a look again.

Most likely another lesser Daedra of Hermaeus Mora. It is in Apocrypha, after all.
But it resembles an Ascended Sleeper a bit.

That was one of my initial thoughts. It's beastly. I wouldn't mind creepin' around Solitude in that stuff.

No idea but I bet it gets really mad when you start burning the library books with your fire spells.

On the 20 dollars thing.....20 dollars is unusually high for a DLC nowadays. Average DLC is between 800 and 1200 points. 1600? That's rare. Shivering Isles was around six years ago, when DLC on console was a new thing. They didn't know how to price it, so 30 dollars for SI could have seemed reasonable back then. Especially when you consider what they were charging for Horse Armor. It was adifferent time in the games industry and different time in the economy. Judging the DLC's content based off the price seems very sketchy to me. Consider that Point Lookout and Broken Steel individually offered more content than Dawnguard at 800 MS points. If anything, at 20 dollars, Dawnguard could easily be seen as over priced. Would have been fine as an 1000 point product. You could say that Dragonborn's price is compensating for Dawnguards over pricing.

Please do, because ive been hoping they would incorporate spears in for a loooong time. I hope you find some throwing spear animations as well.

Off-topic: Indeed, I don't usually like ponies. But, that one does make me smile alittle.

Sorry for going off-topic.

On topic: I really think this dlc is going to be a good size. We probably will get a whole new landmass, the island as a whole. And a plane of oblivion, thatt hopefully will be more than the soul crain was. Plus, these some settlements, Iono, I have a good feeling about this.

I think that's a given since it's in Apocrypha.
It's located at 0:43 in the video.
